Dino Pasquale Eliminated by Ruben Perez
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Ruben Perez opened to 16,500 from the button. His stack had slipped somewhat from where he started today, but he was still remaining active at his table.
Dino Pasquale then three-bet all-in from the small blind for his remaining chips, around 80,000. The big blind folded and Perez called.
Perez showed 
and was behind to Pasquale's 
. However, the flop soon changed all that, as Perez flopped the absolute nuts on 
. There were some backdoor outs, but they were extinguished when the board completed 
and Perez gratefully added Pasquale's chips to his stack.
